    Good morning,

    Many of the short bed Tacoma's I've seen running oversized tires (32s or 33s) look kind of wonky to me, with the appearance that the wheel is sitting an inch or two too far forward in the wheel well, looking off center as well as with the forward most edge of the tire either flush with or slightly in front of the gap between the bed and cab, which looks really off putting to me. I however less commonly see Tacoma's where the wheel looks perfectly centered.

    What causes this appearance discrepancy, is it perhaps something related to the rear leafs or when people have done lift and not dropped the carrier, extended drive line or something else of that nature?
